Rockhampton Regional Council and Livingstone Shire Council joined today to congratulate those who participated in this year's regional garden competition.

Chair of Rockhampton Regional Council's parks and recreation committee, councillor Cherie Rutherford said she was very impressed with this year's entries.

"The Betascapes Spring Garden Spectacular remains our region's most eagerly awaited gardening competition. All up, there were 69 individual nominations across the 10 categories, which shows how popular it is with our local garden enthusiasts," Cr Rutherford said.

"I'd particularly like to congratulate Lance and Sherie Wood, from Rockyview Estate, who took out this year's Grand Champion Garden - it was a very impressive example of skill and colour.

Councillor Tom Wyatt, who looks after the portfolios of Sport, Recreation, Parks and Community Facilities for Livingstone Shire Council, said that each year this competition showcased the flair, passion and imagination of our local gardeners.

"It is pleasing to see a mix of entries from different locations, from the beach to the city and the bush," Cr Wyatt said.
